RE: Request for an Important Thread: "Rules of Engagement for PBEM Games"
I don't see any reason a list of optional ROEs can't be put in place, to help newcomers decide what exceptions to the manual they might want in place, like exiting vehicles, assualts with halftracks, etc. These optional ROEs, though, can't be Blitz rules, merely listed options some players like to use.
It would also makes it easier to discuss rules up front, if there's a list in place somewhere that a player could refer to before starting a game with an unknown opponent.
The biggest problem I see, though, is the arguments that might ensue in discussing what options should be on the list in the first place. :)
